Depuis 2016

Sourdough baking happened to me. I didn't particularly look for it. A friend provided the opportunity and gave me a full morning instruction plus a part of her starter "Petra" which was 2 years old at the time. Since then I'm hooked.

Caractéristiques

Schnups II is a strong starter. It shows good activity within 30min of taking it out of the fridge. It forms small bubbles evenly across the whole starter. The smell is nice yeasty and slightly sweet. In summer, I have to half all resting times for the starter to not miss the point where I have to start my bread.

Ingrédients pour nourrir le levain

1
Mix flour and water. Add to the starter. I adjust amounts (in the ratios described earlier) to how much I have left and how much I need for the next bake. I usually have no left overs or discards. I built as much as I need for baking.
